Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) can help overcome data scarcity in computer vision tasks by generating additional training samples. In this work, we explore generative data augmentation in two low-resource domains: Bangla handwritten character recognition and chest X-ray image analysis. We use DCGAN-based models trained on 64x64 images to generate synthetic samples and evaluate their quality using Inception Score (IS), Fréchet Inception Distance (FID), and visualization methods such as t-SNE and UMAP. To measure practical usefulness, we train image classifiers using real data and a combination of real and synthetic data. Experimental results show that synthetic augmentation improves data diversity and consistently increases classification performance in limited-data settings. We also investigate training stability techniques, including gradient penalty and spectral normalization, and perform ablation studies on synthetic-to-real data ratios and sample filtering strategies. In addition, we discuss challenges related to medical image evaluation, dataset licensing, and privacy concerns of synthetic data. Our approach is simple, reproducible, and provides a strong baseline for generative augmentation in resource-constrained imaging applications.
